Hi Harrison, Viv, Ashley and All,<div><div><br></div><div>I was asked, a short time ago to open space for a group wanting to set up a community garden in the town where I now live.</div><div>At the exact moment when I was about to hunt through my archives to work out how many break-out spaces we'll need, you asked that very question, Ashley.</div><div>I had the benefit of several answers from experienced facilitators to set my mind at rest.</div><div>Then I went to see the meeting venue last night, and everything we'll need is there for the participants to use - some wonderful spaces in a beautiful church.</div><div><br></div><div>Last night the 2 main planners asked me to speak with the committee, who is planning the event, tomorrow morning.</div><div>I needed a handy summary of Open Space to give the group.</div><div>Your talk gave me exactly what I needed, Harrison, via your recording, Viv.</div><div>In 5 minutes, I found as much detail as I can remember to pass on to the committee.</div><div>Lovely.</div><div>Thank you, Harrison</div><div>.</div><div>I can almost taste the crunchy veges from the future garden.</div><div>Hope I'm not getting ahead of myself!</div><div><br></div><div>Only problem is, as a relative newcomer to the town, I think I probably need to stay out of the small groups for this meeting.</div><div>Perhaps I can persuade someone else to take on facilitation of the next gathering, if there is one, so I can join in more fully.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Allison.</div><div>PS Our daughter is getting married in 3 weeks - weddings must be in the air!</div><div>Any hints, Harrison?</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On 22/08/2008, at 9:58 PM, Harrison Owen wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0; "><o:smarttagtype namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="PostalCode"><o:smarttagtype namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="State"><o:smarttagtype namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="City"><o:smarttagtype namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="place"><o:smarttagtype namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="Street"><o:smarttagtype namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="address"><div class="Section1"><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; "><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; ">I suppose this is the super ego trip, but I just listened to Viv McWater’s podcast of my remarks in<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">San Francisco</st1:place></st1:city><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>at OSONOS.
